Two for Two!


Okay, before I begin, check out last nights dinner!  
Going... Going ... Gone!  This was one of the best meals I have ever made! Think of the best Generals Chicken or Sesame Chicken you have had at a Chinese Food Restaurant - this recipe could compete!
 It took some work but it was so worth it. 
And who new homemade won tons were so easy to make(and only 35 calories)! Check out the chicken recipe at Tasty Kitchen.


Tonights meal is nipping at the heels of last nights meal!  My husbands words, Best Enchiladas you have ever made!  Another success!  For some reason I find that I am a better cook when I am stressed to the max and barely have time for it!  Is this because I am putting off things that I should be doinghmm?


Growing up, Mexican dishes rarely touched our table. Besides the occasional taco, my ears and taste buds were virgins to burritos, enchiladas, and tamales. I envied my friends when they talked about the enchiladas their mom made for dinner. Oh, for just one bite - to experience a taste of these mystery foods!  I dont think it was until I was in high school that I experienced my first meal at a Mexican Restaurant!  My love for Mexican food was heightened when I met Jake and now it is a staple in our weekly menu planning!  Here is the recipe for the best White Chicken and green chili enchiladas.

Start by layering a tortilla with shredded chicken and Monterrey cheese.  
I love these tortilla's, found in most health food sections of grocery stores!  Yay for low carb(4 net carbs) and 95% fat-free!


Roll and place seam side down  in 9x13 pan.  I used 8x8 and only made 4 enchilada's!


In a small sauce pan, melt 3 tablespoons butter.  Once melted add 3 tablespoons of flour and stir on medium until sauce becomes thick and bubbly.  


Add 1 cup sour cream, 1 cup of chicken broth, and 1 can of diced chilies.


Pour over rolled tortillas and sprinkle cheese on top.  Bake for 20 -30 minutes at 375*.  

Serve with rice and enjoy!


*The recipe makes enough sauce for 8 enchilada's.  I halved this recipe and only made four.
